Minimum Critical Scour Velocity evaluator uses Minimum Critical Scour Velocity = (3*sqrt(Acceleration due to Gravity*Diameter of Particle(Min Critical Scour Velocity)*(Specific Gravity of Particle-1))) to evaluate the Minimum Critical Scour Velocity, The Minimum Critical Scour Velocity formula is defined as the lowest velocity at which the water flow begins to erode the bed material in a channel or river. This velocity is critical because it represents the threshold at which sediment particles on the bed are dislodged and transported downstream, leading to scour. Minimum Critical Scour Velocity is denoted by vmins symbol.
How to evaluate Minimum Critical Scour Velocity using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Minimum Critical Scour Velocity, enter Acceleration due to Gravity (g), Diameter of Particle(Min Critical Scour Velocity) (Dp) & Specific Gravity of Particle (G) and hit the calculate button.
